What problems are you talking about?

2.6.19, of any type, locks up all my intel SMP boxes hard. I think the
technical term is 'doh!'. Although, my hero of the day Eric B has worked
it out : http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/2/1/29

So far reports are in that 2.6.20 doesn't boot on some SCSI machines,
and the sky2 driver seems to explode (or did back in early Dec). Early
performance indications show a very small increase in perf which is good
though.
